[Dovecot] user_global_* ldap deliver

Searched archive, but failed to find... :-(

"deliver" does not honor user_global_* from dovecot-ldap.conf or
userdb
static{}
also
it looks like delivery attempts being made to %n/Maildir/cur ??

one other curious thing, use of ${recipient} in master.cf|deliver
command causes the "passdb ldap" lookups to be completely ignored?
only
checks passdb and ignores userdb compleletely?

IF I put noel(at)metc(dot)net into passwd.dovecot using passdb flatfile,
auth and delivery seem to work.

Thanks for any direction. I lament I couldn't get farther on my own.

Noel

1.0.7 is old/outdated. Best advice is update to latest stable (currently
1.2.3) then try again...

The static userdb isn't used, because you have a passwd before that and
the user "noel" is found from there. You should probably remove it.

${user} is why the @domain gets dropped out. Is this intended? If not,
add @${domain}.

I noticed that noel worked if in passwd.dovecot which set uid/gid to
502(vmail), when removed, failure. and, presently, I DO want just
${user}, but thanks. For my own understanding, is the ${user} ${domain}
stuff from "old version" and ${recipient} from new??

@Charles, I could use atrpms, it's what I do for "personal
workstation"
had minor qualms RE production server. No dis to Axel.
